It was the last weekend before Labor Day and we planned to take a trip that had been on the list all summer, which was a trip up the Opalescent River from its confluence with the Hudson in Tahawus. We brought our Hornbeck boats and spent the afternoon transitioning between paddling and dragging our boats behind us as we walked through the river. We had great views and wonderful solitude as we paddled and picnicked our way up and down the river for a seven-mile trip.
In the evening, we had a picnic dinner at Overlook Park in Newcomb.
The next day, we took the guide boat for a row on Rich Lake in Newcomb and managed to dodge most of the raindrops for the day. We spent the rest of the day at the cabin reading and relaxing!
